<p>Hi Everyone,</p>
<p>I was wondering how the research opportunities for Biology Majors are at Bowdoin?</p>
<p>Thanks!</p>
<p>From the father of a biology graduate, I’d say excellent. A very strong program with great opportunities both during and beyond.</p>
<p>Research opportunities in biology are excellent. I did research in another subject over the summer, and biology had many, many students. More students than Chem and EOS, but similar numbers to ES. If you can, spend a summer at Bowdoin. It has been an amazing experience.</p>

<p>And if you get bored of campus for the summer, there are opportunities on the spacious and lovely Mount Desert Island Lab:</p>

<p>The school also sends a few peeps to the major government labs for the summer, as well.</p>
